This is new project for third grade this year. They learned a lot about value and how to use watercolor to create the illusion of a three dimensional object. We drew the donuts by tracing a can for the large circle and a bottle lid for the center. We added a couple of lines to give them depth, then began painting, using a darker version and a lighter version of the same color. I think they turned out deliciously!! :)

About Me

I have been teaching elementary school art for 10 years. I love drawing, painting, and creating things. The only thing better than creating art, is being able to TEACH it to others! I always tell my students to color dark and heavy with colored pencils or crayons, and I often say "Color it like you MEAN it!" which is where my blog title comes from!
